Ok Splinterfriends,
Let ol' Dingus tell you a funny story of just how shitty his luck actually is.
I'll save the Good Luck story of winning a GFL Calamity for next time because this one needs to come out first.
This isn't going to be a funny GIF filled adventure.
Nope, just a tale of how I got somehow got boned YET AGAIN and the timing is just un-fucking-canny.
This somehow keeps happening to me on repeat and I don't get and I want this on the Blockchain for people to look back on - like what did I do to deserve this?
I must be the comic fucking relief in this universe.
So check this out:
Nidhoggr is released way back when and it's a pretty ok card but that Force Reduction definitely hurts it.
As I am collecting all my Rebellion Legendaries I start to buy Nidhoggr but one of my Guild CoFounders says "Hey bro, don't worry about that! I actually have 2 Max Copies and I'll delegate you 1"
I forget about Nid delegation and use him occaisionally and here's where the timing + bullshit happens...
Nidhoggr suddenly "un-nerfed" for whatever reason about 2 weeks ago or so?
One of my Co Founders LEAVES THE GAME, SELLS HIS ACCOUNT and guess what... No more Nid now that HE'S ACTUALLY USEFUL...
When does that happen?? Not even 3 Days after Nid PowerBoosted! So what does the price do... it SKYROCKETS. I'm like "that's cool, I have a Nid... then BOOM... sure don't".
So what does that mean for me???
A. I don't own Nid because I didn't NEED Nid.
B. Now that I need Nid, I can't GET Nid because there are ZERO FOR RENT and the price DOUBLED in the last 2 weeks
Now Nid is a pretty important card for the Meta and I am losing to Nid when before you barely saw him played...
So I must ask you to consider the amount of variables that went into that...
Didn't buy Nid when cheap because of Guildie.
Didn't need Nid because had Nid
Nid De-Nerfed and Price Skyrockets
Guildie quits and now I can't get a Nid without paying out the ass
I just want to know HOW this sort of thing keeps happening. It's driving me INSANE at this point.
Y'all might think I am making these things up but what the actual fuck.
That's all I have for you today folks!! Thank you for reading and I would LOVE for you to join me in game!!

What changed to un-nerf him?
You no longer lose a Unit Slot
It used to be a Nerf Called "Force Reduction" where you lost 1 Unit Slot...
So if the rules said you could play all 6, if you played Nid, you could only play 5 Units and they could play 6...
Now you don't lose that unit slot and that is HUGE
ohh shoot okay that is crazy huge!
Yes and I like the change - but bruh... the timing...
